Please Help Me Make Blogging Better
by Oliver Starr
I have a small favor to ask of you. Please help me to improve the blogging experience. You may have noticed recently the profusion of buttons such as the “digg” or “sphere it” buttons that have started sprouting up all over the web. Ostensibly these buttons are designed to facilitate the posting of stories that readers find interesting on other sites to help these stories gain more attention. Judging by the frequent with which these buttons now occur I’ve been wondering just how much of a difference they make - who’s doing all that clicking? Is it you?
To find out I’ve created two surveys; one is aimed mostly at content creators and aims to discover how you choose to put buttons on your web site, which buttons you choose, why you choose them, and what sort of benefits you think you’re getting. The second is more for folks that tend to “digg” stuff rather than for those hoping to get “dugg” and win the “dugg lottery”
If you could be so kind as to take a couple of minutes from your busy day to answer one or both of these surveys I will be truly appreciative. I will also be happy to share the data I collect with anyone that actually completes one or both surveys.
Survey One: for Bloggers
Survey Two: for Blog Readers
Thanks for your help!
